That's funny.  There's a Mt. Vernon 20 miles from where I live.

Yeah, its named after the real Mt. Vernon.

There isn’t even a mountain at Washington’s Mt Vernon. It’s next to the Potomac. Must be a Virginia thing.

Its more like a hill.

Please share.   Being from the upper mid-west, my perception of the east is that the country is non-existent west of the Mississippi River

That's essentially what the map shows!  I'll see if I can find it online.  It's pretty funny.

I found one but this is not the one I'm thinking of.  But funny nonetheless.  https://www.funnyordie.com/2011/7/12/17739382/the-map-of-america-as-seen-by-a-new-yorker

Totally inaccurate and unfair.

 

Nothing exists west of Pennsylvania.

I guess this means you wouldn't be amenable to relocating if we can't resolve which one is the real Washington.  I was going to propose we split the difference and place it somewhere around Oklahoma City.

Nooooooooo... not Oklahoma City.  I grew up in St. Louis and that was bad enough.

I was a little worried after posting it, seeing as where the Supersonics relocated and I didn't know if that was a bad memory for you.

I'm a transplant with no allegiance to the Washington Football Team.  I'm okay with shipping them off to Siberia, like you suggest.

Drop the ‘Football team.’ Just...’Washington.’ It’s clean.

Why do we need nicknames?

Sales promotions.  Way back in 1985 it wasn't Chicago Bears it was 'Da Bears.    Then again if it's Detroit, it's just lame whatever it's called!

The Pistons is a great nickname! Perfect for the Motor City.

No Scott. And don’t ever mention such a foul name on this clean board. Lambeer!? Thomas?! Ugh.😉

    • Just want to share a quick update with everyone. I went to the range the week before last, even though I took it easy no significant pain occurred just a slight twinge when I swung my #4 hybrid. The most encouraging news was no soreness the next morning. However I think switching back to graphite shafts is definitely gonna happen, my mp15's were fitted with X shafts and having something lighter will help.  
    • Day 289: mirror work today. Working on the same downswing hip stuff. 
    • Here's something to chew on. Not much to it, but apparently the ideas being tossed around.  Greg Norman - LIV open-minded about moving to 72-hole format - ESPN LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman said he is open-minded about the idea of moving to a traditional 72-hole format, though he explained that the Saudi-backed circuit would need to evaluate the impact of adding an extra round to its...  
    • I heard a clip of this on Katrek and Maginnes on Tap today and thought @boogielicious would appreciate it.
